<br>Sam, I had the same problem and worse with POP3 and Netscape mail on
an XP Pro machine.&nbsp; After an excellent, helpful msg from Tim Peters
("Re: [Spambayes] I'm running into a resource conflict; SpamBayes freezes
my system" on 30 Jun 04), I went the ZoneAlarm tech support route.
<p>They had me do a clean uninstall and revert to version 4.5.594.000 of
ZoneAlarm, which works seamlessly with SpamBayes.&nbsp; They said they
were aware of the issue with their 5.x release and were working on it,
but that it might be the >next&lt; release before they had it solved.
<p>So, for now, I simply ignore the automatic ZoneAlarm pleadings to upgrade
to the latest version.
<p>Tim, I had meant to send the list a follow-up after ZoneAlarm gave me
the workaround, but I failed to do so until now.
<p>Thank you again for the terrific help -- and for the terrific product.
<p>Cheers!

been using SpamBayes version 1.0rc2 (or is it 0.6?) configured in proxy
mode for a couple of weeks.&nbsp; My email client is Outlook Express.&nbsp;
I receive a lot of email in numerous accounts, and after training it initially
with about 2000 good messages and 2000 spam messages it is doing a really

the following sometimes happens when I attempt to do further training.&nbsp;
Often, but not always, W2K stops responding normally after clicking on
Review Messages. The browser launches to a white screen, but never gets
to the point of displaying the normal training page.&nbsp;&nbsp; I cannot
launch new applications.&nbsp; Some applications already active will respond,
but will not Close.</font></font>&nbsp;<font face="Arial"><font size=-1>Ctrl-Alt-Del
initially brings up its normal window, after clicking on Task Manager the
normal desktop reappears, but the task manager window never appears. Subsequent
ctrl-alt-del requests are ignored.</font></font>&nbsp;<font face="Arial"><font size=-1>The
only clue comes after trying to shut down Zone Alarm.&nbsp; After a timeout
period, it displays this message: "ZoneAlarm is waiting for the TrueVector
Internet Monitor to unload".&nbsp; Clicking on Cancel in this dialog box
is ignored, the window remains.</font></font>&nbsp;<font face="Arial"><font size=-1>Eventually
nothing responds except mouseover messages on the task bar, and a hard

known anything which will lock up W2K to this degree.</font></font>&nbsp;<font face="Arial"><font size=-1>Help
